Update from cable replacement team

FYI from the Cable Replacement Team.

Dear Neighbor,

Check out this week's update on our latest progress—plus, a look ahead to what expect next with the Salem Cable Project!

We're glad to report that remediation activities in the New Derby-Lafayette intersection are now complete. You may have also noticed that, last week, our cable removal crew on the east end of the route removed all of the underground cable from the Salem Harbor Station to just shy of the intersection of Derby Street and Hawthorne Boulevard. 
On the other side of Hawthorne Boulevard, on Derby Street, our crew has removed all of the underground cable from the Canal Street Substation to about halfway between Liberty Street and Hawthorne Boulevard. Barring any unforeseen issues, contractors look forward to removing the last segment of underground cable that runs through the Derby–Hawthorne intersection next week. 

Lastly, removal of the old duct bank housed T-146 cable is progressing well. To date, 95 percent of these cables have been removed, and the remainder are currently being addressed. 

Please note that there will be restoration work taking place for the remainder of the month, and work inside the Salem Harbor Station and Canal Street Substation will be ongoing. That said, all major excavation and the vast majority of on-street activities for the cable project are nearly complete!

As always, police details will be present at our work sites to facilitate vehicle and pedestrian traffic management. Please use caution in and around these active work areas to minimize risks to your personal safety and to avoid any interference with construction.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to call our toll-free hotline at 844-SALEM-CABLE or use the "Contact Us" feature on our website at salemcableproject.com.

We thank you for your continued patience as we work as quickly and as safely as possible to complete the project.  

Sincerely,
The Salem Cable Project
